Some installations of PHP 5 may have a problem starting the SSH2 extension as a Windows' service. It just started happening to me today, spontaneously. I have PHP 5.2.2 (and have tried 5.2.3), on Apache 2.0.59 .
It turns out that it's an Apache problem. Even though I was given an error message when starting it, it still worked perfectly from the CLI. So, I commented it out in the
INI file again, and am just loading it using extension_loaded('ssh2') and dl('php_ssh2.dll') from within the script.
CLV. Secure Shell2 Functions
Введение
Bindings to the libssh2 library which provide access to resources (shell, remote exec, tunneling, file transfer) on a remote machine using a secure cryptographic transport.
Установка
Windows binaries may be found at http://snaps.php.net/. To install, download php_ssh2.dll to the folder specified by your php.ini file's extension_dir directive. Enable it by adding extension=php_ssh2.dll to your php.ini and restarting your webserver.
extension_dir=c:/php5/exts/ extension=php_ssh2.dll |
Linux, BSD, and other *nix variants can be compiled using the following steps:
Download and install OpenSSL. If you install OpenSSL via your distribution's packaging system be sure to install the development libraries as well. This will typically be a package named openssl-dev, openssl_devel, or some variation thereof.
Download and install libssh2. Typically this means executing the following command from the libssh2 source tree. ./configure && make all install.
Run the pear installer for PECL/ssh2: pear install ssh2
Copy ssh2.so from the directory indicated by the build process to the location specified in your php.ini file under extension_dir.
Add extension=ssh2.so to your php.ini
Restart your webserver to reload your php.ini settings.
Development Versions: There are currently no stable versions of PECL/ssh2, to force installation of the beta version of PECL/ssh2 execute: pear install ssh2-beta
Compiling PECL/ssh2 without using the PEAR command: Rather than using pear install ssh2 to automatically download and install PECL/ssh2, you may download the tarball from PECL. From the root of the unpacked tarball, run: phpize && ./configure --with-ssh2 && make to generate ssh2.so. Once built, continue the installation from step 4 above.
Дополнительная информация, такая как новый версии, скачивание, исходные файлы, информация о разработчике и CHANGELOG, могут быть найдены здесь: http://pecl.php.net/package/ssh2.
Замечание: You will need version 0.4 or greater of the libssh2 library (possibly higher, see release notes).

For those trying to use this under an x86_64 version of an rpm-based distribution (e.g. CentOS, RHEL or Fedora Core) who don't have an rpm for libssh2, here's a work around.
Locate the source rpm for an i386 version (for instance from dag or dries) and rebuild it:
rpmbuild --rebuild --target x86_64 libssh2-*.src.rpm
If the rebuild complains about not being able to find something and references a path beginning /var/tmp or /tmp, it may very well have built the files but failed due to a minor error in the spec file. I was too lazy to fix the spec file, so I just manually copied the files into place. In my case, the path in the error included /var/tmp/libssh2-0.12-root/usr/lib/... Note that libssh2 part? That's the area where all the files are dumped during the rpmbuild process. if you move everything in there to the comparable place on your drive, you're golden. In this case libssh2.so was in /var/tmp/libssh2-0.12-root/usr/lib/ Strip off the /var/tmp/libssh2* part and you find out the libssh2.so file goes in /usr/lib/
Enjoy.

Update for the Mac OS X install when using the Entropy.ch PHP5 package: You can use the PECL installer for ssh2 now instead of manually downloading it.
1) Download and install libssh2 per the instructions below(Steps 1-5)
2) run "sudo /usr/local/php5/bin/pecl install ssh2-beta"
3) add extension=ssh2.so to /usr/local/php5/lib/php.ini
4) Restart Apache (sudo apachectl restart)

I also struggled with the
configure: error: libssh2 version >= 0.4 not found
error using verions 0.10 of ssh2 and 0.14 of libssh.
When looking in the config.log file I found that it was unable to find my SSL libraries, and as I installed my openssl in /usr/local/ssl it could not find it. It was only looking in /usr/local/lib.
To get round this problem, I set
LDFLAGS="-L /usr/local/ssl/lib"
and this works a treat.

Installing on HPUX 11.11 cookbook
Just follow the install instructions on the man page and solved the problems as they appear
- when making libssh2
Problem related with /lib/pa20_64 and 64 bits library in 32 bits link
Edited the configure file and changed
SHLIB_LDFLAGS="-b +vnocompatwarnings -L/lib/pa20_64"
to
SHLIB_LDFLAGS="-b +vnocompatwarnings -L/lib"
-when executing phpize
Problems with aclocal, autom4ke and m4
Installed automake, autoconf and m4
-when ./configuring the ssh2
Configure: error: libssh2 version >= 0.4 not found
Edited the configure.m4 and removed the -ldl switch from line (as posted before)
39 -L$SSH2_DIR/lib -lm -ldl
runned phpize again and ./configure --with-ssh2
11-Aug-2006 06:11
I was building out the ssh2 extension (0.10) under OpenBSD 3.9 on sparc64 and I got this error when running configure:
checking for libssh2_banner_set in -lssh2... no
configure: error: libssh2 version >= 0.4 not found
I did some poking around in the configure file and traced the problem down. The reason for the failure is that configure is trying to compile a test program with -ldl. libdl is not installed on OpenBSD 3.9. The OpenBSD folks purged libdl years ago and I could not find a package that contains it.
(The error message above is misleading because the problem is not with libssh2.)
I looked at the ssh2 extension code and could not see a reason for using libdl, so I removed the -ldl from the config.m4 file. Re-ran phpize and configure. No errors. Did make and installed ssh2.so. Works fine.

Just a quick note about the manual installation instructions above. If your PHP is in a non-standard location, or you're running multiple installs of different PHP version, you have to complie the module with an explicit path to phpize and php-config:
/path/to/correct/php/bin/phpize && ./configure --with-ssh2 --with-php-config=/path/to/correct/php/bin/php-config && make
Took me an hour to figure out why I was getting a "Unable to initialize module Module compiled with module API" error when I loaded the module. Turns out, it was compiling against my php4 libs, and not the php5 ones.
05-Jun-2006 09:57
I couldn't get `pear install ssh2-beta` to work, so I tried the manual installation. I followed the instructions:
phpize && ./configure --with-ssh2 && make
Copy ssh2.so from the directory indicated by the build process to the location specified in your php.ini file under extension_dir.
When I restarted Apache, I got:
PHP Warning: Unknown(): Invalid library (maybe not a PHP library) 'ssh2.so' in Unknown on line 0
To fix the problem, I ran `make install`, instead of copying ssh2.so into the extension directory.
26-Mar-2006 09:08
To slightly correct the directory listing code below....
<?php
$connection = ssh2_connect("hostname", 22);
// use any of the ssh2_auth_* methods
ssh2_auth_password($connection,"username", "password");
$sftp = ssh2_sftp($connection);
$dir = "ssh2.sftp://$sftp/path/to/dir/";
$dh = opendir($dir);
while (($file = readdir($dh)) !== false) {
echo "$file is in hostname:/path/to/dir\ n";
}
closedir($dh);
?>

Trying to compile this ssh PECL extension for Mac OS X (10.4.2)
with entropy.ch's php5 distribution? Read on: PART 2:
11) Check your shell's path variable by SHELL$ "echo $PATH".
If your php5 binary directory is not listed before the standard OS X binary directory,
update your $PATH variable to list it first. Mine reads:
/usr/local/mysql/bin/: /usr/local/php5/bin/: /bin:/sbin: /usr/bin:/usr/sbin
11a) if you do not do this step, the PECL extension will link against the old
php4 version that ships with Mac OS X. You will know this by the fact that the
next step lists a server API that is different than the output of phpinfo():
My version was 20041030, Apples version was 20020429.
12) Run: phpize && ./configure --with-ssh2 && make
This will produce a lot of output and probably some warnings. If you get a note
at the end that says "Build Complete", then the process has completed
(probably successfully). The command has produced the output file ssh2.so within
the ssh2-0.9 (or whatever version) directory.
13) Check where the extension directory is located at by running the following command:
SHELL$/usr/local/php5/bin/php-config --extension-dir
If it lists some directory that actually exists, copy the ssh2.so file to this directory.
If it doesn't list a location that exists, you can either create the location, or
choose a different location and update the line in your php.ini file:
extension_dir = "./"
to point to the directory you would like to use. I chose:
extension_dir = "/usr/local/php5/extensions/"?>
14) Add the line
extension=ssh2.so
to the Dynamic Extensions area of your php.ini file.
15) Restart your web server for the extensioin to be loaded. If there are any problems, they will be written to the webserver log.
16) Check if your new ssh based streams are available by running:
SHELL$ /usr/local/php5/bin/php -r "print_r(stream_get_wrappers());"
You should get something similar to this output:
Array
(
[0] => php
[1] => file
[2] => http
[3] => ftp
[4] => compress.bzip2
[5] => compress.zlib
[6] => https
[7] => ftps
[8] => ssh2.shell
[9] => ssh2.exec
[10] => ssh2.tunnel
[11] => ssh2.scp
[12] => ssh2.sftp
)
You should now be able to do all the cool things you need to do with ssh
(like sftp scp ssh execution)! Take a look at some of the comment here for some
example scripts to test things out:
http://us2.php.net/manual/en/ref.ssh2.php
Good luck... hope that saves you my headache! :)

Trying to compile this ssh PECL extension for Mac OS X (10.4.2)
with entropy.ch's php5 distribution? Read on: PART 1:
1) Download libssh (I used version 0.11)
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=125852
2) Unzip the directory and cd to the upacked directory in the terminal.
3) run: ./configure; make all install;
libssh should compile and place the output file in src/*.o
4) copy all headers from the include folder within the libssh2 directory to
/usr/local/include/
5) copy all compiled files (*.o) from the src folder within the libssh2
directory to /usr/local/lib/
6) Download ssh2
(I used version 0.9 with additional changes from cvs - explained below)
http://pecl.php.net/package/ssh2
7) unzip the downloaded archive.
8) version 0.9 has a conflict with an existing symbol used in some of the ZEND headers...
a change is available in cvs which renames the symbol in ssh2 to avoid the conflict
http://cvs.php.net/diff.php/pecl/ssh2/ssh2.c?r1=1.9&r2=1.10&ty=h
down load at least the 1.10 version of ssh2.c
if you decide to download a newer version, download any of the corresponding related files,
such as the php_ssh2.h header file.
9) replace the old version of ssh2.c with the new version of ssh2.c
(and any other files you downloaded).
10) From the terminal:
cd to the source directory (for me ssh2-0.9/ssh2-0.9/).

OK, the SSH class I wrote is now available for free on the Net.
The class uses an underlying SSH implementation, and hence does not require any library to be compiled against.
It is available at savannah.cer.ch as a byproduct of project GridGramm (look in the downloads section). There are two releases available, the first one establishes a connection for each command, having a serious authentication overhead. The second release shares a master connection, highly reducing auth payload, but requires openssh >= 3.8.
They are also available from the development site at
http://savannah.cern.ch/projects/gridgramm
and come with extensive documentation and examples.
These are work in progress, and I hope to add more enhancements in the close future. But you are welcome to use them now.
